==Choose Equipment==

==Equipment Chosing==
 +
While the above set-up guide recommends only types of equipment, this section gives the general rules on how to choose equipment within a given type.
   −
While the above set-up guide recommend a type of equipment this section gives the general rules to choose the best equipment of a certain type.
+
Equipment of a same type are mainly differentiated by their "[[Stats]]" ({{Firepower}}, {{Torpedo}}, {{AA}}, ...), as well as some more specific attributes, like:
 +
* [[Fit Bonuses]] (both visible and invisible),
 +
* [[Improvement]] {{Star}} stats,
 +
* Modifiers brought in certain mechanics, ranging from combat to routing,
 +
* Special mechanics induced by certain equipment...
    +
Equipment have a wide range of stats, however, not all stats are ranked the same way, some being more important than other, depending on the equipment type.
   −
Equipments of a same type are different by their "stat" in a wider range than the usual [[Stats]] shown in game ({{Firepower}}, {{Torpedo}}, {{AA}}, ...) for the following reasons:
+
Here, equipment stats are dispatched into 3 categories:
* When talking about a stat of an equipment this include most of the time [[Fit Bonuses]] (both visible and invisible) and [[Improvement]] {{Star}} stats.
+
* '''Primary Stats''': stats that influence the effectiveness of the equipment in its main role, being the main choosing factor,
* Some modifiers and mechanics may also be included.
+
* '''Secondary Stats''': stats that can influence the effectiveness of the equipment for other purposes, helping to choose between equipment sharing the same "Primary Stats".
 
+
* '''Bonus Stats''': All the other stats. These stats do not influence the effectiveness of the equipment much, but are appreciable for the general stat stats of the equipping ship.
 
  −
Equipments have a wide range of stats however not all of them have thesame level of importance.
  −
So, for the purpose of this guide the equipment "stats" have been arbitrarily dispatch into 3 categories:
  −
* '''Primary stats''': This is the stats that influence the effectiveness of the equipment in its main purpose
  −
* '''Secondary stats''': This is stats that influence the effectiveness of the equipment in other purpose than its main one.
  −
* '''Bonus stats''': All the other stats. These stats doesn't influence the effectiveness of the equipment.
  −
 
  −
 
  −
The rules for choosing the best equipment are as follow:
  −
# Take the equipment with the highest '''primary stats'''
  −
# If two equipments have the same primary stats take the one with the highest '''Secondary stats'''
  −
# '''Bonus stats''' can be ignored when choosing an equipment.
